Lay Me Down

lay me down in restful waters
lay me down in rivers wide
lay me down in streams of glory
lift me up and lay me down
swept up and emptied by the hands of doubt
caught in the current of time
i feel the wind of things i long to change
slipping through each moment of my grasp
lay me down in restful waters
lay me down in rivers wide
lay me down in streams of glory
lift me up and lay me down
hold myself straight against the driving wind
and still i feel me struggling
touch to my lips a precious drop of faith
and with it fill my spirit once again
lay me down in restful waters
lay me down in rivers wide
lay me down in streams of glory
lift me up and lay me down
